My Scorpio coworker is literally obsessed with herself.

She talks about herself incessantly and tries to make everything about her.

If someone was in an accident or dies she somehow always seems to have known them or their family or someone who knew them - and there is always a lot of over explaining how she is knows said person and how close they were, etc. so she can talk about herself more and how she feels and how this incident somehow affects her.

She even tried to make the recent hurricane about her...even though we were never in the path, there was still a chance it could hit us in her eyes so we had to hear about all of her preparations and all the people she had coming to stay with her because of the storm . I think she was actually disappointed it missed us...so she went on to talk about her "very close friends who are like family" who live in NC who were in the direct path and how they were calling her to check on her ?

For me I've lost my desire

Seriously I want nothing

They are testing for promotions at work , not interested

Become rich, not interest

Be in a relationship not interested

I'm perfectly fine with my simple life but in a world that makes u feel u must reach for the stars

I'm over it.

My simple life I'm content yet I feel " is that wrong? "


You're a cancer survivor, yes?

Yes why? I feel guilty that I'm not reaching for those stars

But I'm perfectly content.

Like I'm wasting a life

That's my internal battle
Surviving cancer is, in itself, very big battle won.

So you shouldn't feel guilty at all, really. Put more emphasis on you being content with what you have - the most important one being your health.
Thanks

I will vent my most recent transformational experience.

Last Friday I spoke with a coworker n story came up about her 40 year old cousin who had breast cancer n was in remission for three years. It seemed it had returned n only she knew the had told her she'd die n chemo would only slow the death. After her third chemo she could not return to work n that evening she called her loved ones saying she would not make it n made her goodbye . She died that morning

Now since my illness I've heard many people dying from it but until I heard this story it hit me. I thought " here I've been given several chances n yet I'm wasted my time being hurt over a man!" I'm not sure what touched my heart maybe because she said her goodbyes to loved ones! But I sobbed realizing the gift n opportunity I've been given. This could have been my result but it wasn't. N here I've been for years depressed over a man who could not love me. How foolish of me to waste my time any longer in pain. So I chose to be happy from this point. I'm no longer in pain over that man. In the big scheme of things he is so minuscule. It's stupid that all these years I could not get it through my thick head how lucky I've been. Not going to say wasted years being depressed as I turned inward n did do a lot healing .

My dad is also a Cancer survivor. Got the green light for remission in February this year. We also have a family friend who has been battling bile duct cancer for the last 3 years. It has gotten to a point where he will now try anything to find a cure.

Sometime in March my dad had a conversation with this friend and told him about his remission status. Something clicked in my dad's head when the friend said to him, "I've been waiting for years to hear of a remission status for myself. You're goddamned lucky."

*Sips dink*

To start I woke up today fucking Nancy Grey from down the street. Except it was a dream and Nancy Grey was my left hand. When I first rolled out of my bed to the floor I laid there a bit and thought about how much closer the gun was then my motivation. My stomach hurt, likely from all the lies I've been forced to eat my whole life, on top of chest pains likely from all the times my heart has been utterly broken. Realistically its likely from all the pot I've smoked, liquor I've drank, and food I've eaten to escape this tainted hell hole. Then I realize what a piece of shit I am. Fuck me right? I quit smoking a year ago, but gained so much weight I have stretch marks worse then any human I've ever seen. Just a disgusting pos all the way around.The dishes have piled up, the trash has piled up, my clothes are all dirty, and my fucking shower is leaking. The worst part is my life is so shitty the only place I get to talk about shitty it is dxpnet. A real black hole of a place. Then the people say "Right there, right fucking there, that's the completely fucked we know and love." Then they applaud like our shitty existence did something right. This topic didn't make me feel better, in fact I feel 1000 times worse. Fuck you and this thread. Fuck dxpnet, and fuck all of you watching too. Not just a little, but royally. Like so many fuck all of you it could fill an average sized Walmart. Nothing more, just an average Walmart.
Well on the positive u can slowly get urself together . Once rock bottom there is only way up

True that. Feeling like your at the top feels so much better when you've come from complete hell.

I get bored easy and like to change things up. If I start to feel too high and mighty I'll break myself back down so I can build myself up again. It works the same when I feel low for too long. I'll get tired of that life and build myself up once more.

I swear to God workplace drama is draining!!! The minute I sat down on my desk I've had three employees come up to me complaining about their co-workers. Thing is, ALL THEIR SHIT AREN'T EVEN WORK-RELATED!!! It's Facebook catfighting!!!

I need a drink.
Tell them that it doesn't matter since it's Facebook.

I always feign major disinterest or shoot down the hysteria by pointing out it's just social media and the entire thing is stupid. They either realize this or stop talking to me about it because I'm not entertaining their stupid shit.

I'm sick of people who are inconsistent. I realllly fuckin hate hot and cold behavior. You're either one way or you're not.. This guy i've been speaking to for years is a pain in the ass. I hate falling for someone because I dislike feeling vulnerable. I hate letting my guard down and trusting in people only to get burned in the end. I feel like love weakens me. It makes me feel alive but it also makes me feel..exposed. Hate it. I'd rather be alone. People suck. This guy seems to not take love seriously. He toys with it..


Gotta learn your own worth!

He doesn't define you but your letting him. Can't let another person control your emotions especially when it makes you feel this way. You chose to allow this so ask yourself why? Celebrate yo self! You are worthy! ?

You said this very nicely! Good advice I hope she sees her value.

I'm very close to dumping the current Scorp. I can't stand mind games and I've learned a lot of lessons from the ex Scorp. I'm really, really close to walking away. I've no time for the same bullshit with a different man.
Why what's wrong ?
Mind games.. All sorts of mind games.. Thank God I dealt with a Scorp before him.. I'm still observing and if his behavior doesn't after I talk to him I'm walking away.

How long have you been dating him ?

What are the main things that irritate you ?

It's only been three months. He's being distant cause he's sulking. He was so paranoid when I was sick for a week. I barely replied to his messages but that's cause I was stuck in bed with a fever at 104 degrees for three days!

He's also disappeared on me for a few days. I know he's not doing anything behind my back but I can't deal with the flip flopping behavior.

Lastly, I'm not heavily invested into whatever this is that we have. I'd be lying if I say I don't have feelings for my ex scorp anymore. I'm still hurting from that break up and the current scorp's actions aren't helping.

I see how this is causing frustration. My advice would be to just speak to him about it & if he's not willing to give you what you need right now then it's time to let him go.

Three months is the magic number. This is the real dude you're dating. You're right to want to run, tbh, especially if he keeps this up after you talk to him.

I was speaking about my mother.

What does that have to do with anything?

Yeah my patience is running short. There's no way in hell I'm chasing a flaky dude. I'll talk to him over the weekend and if he doesn't change in a few days, I'm out.

Ever go through phases at work where you think you understand your coworkers and then BAM. Like a nose dive into despising them again?

I alternate between this with all three co workers, and I'm beginning to think it's not them, it's me. It's my mindset. I expect too much from them and I don't have to anymore.

What good does it do me to care how horrible they are at their job?

Zero.







It happens with everyone I think. It's not a you problem!

I'm sure if you go over this thread in a few weeks -provided that it stays active for that long - you'll see that people vent about similar issues.

I am so full. I have been eating my emotions well and truly for the past two days like a true cancerian lady. I think I'm going to not eat for like a month now.

Also, why have I never gotten along with Capricorn females? And I don't think they like me either. I thought opposing signs were supposed to like eachother.

Opposite signs can be hit or miss. It takes a while to tap through the outer shell of a cap.

My best friend literally made me talk to her every day in class. I'm shy & quiet so I didn't want to. She just kept talking to me everyday faithfully lol

Adulting is hard.....

Some days i just want to go back in time and have no worries of bills, no worries of being responsible, no worries of the pressure of making things happen at work..



i just want to be a kid, at the park or playground, running around, laughing and just enjoying life.

But today is a new day.. and i am already up and about to get ready to go work on my day off.... Adulting sucks!
